CLion 2017.1 Help

Configuring CVS Roots

CVS roots are global CLion properties. Once configured, a CVS root is available regardless of which project is currently opened. This is helpful if you need to check out an entire project from CVS.

You can define multiple CVS root configurations for future use and edit them whenever necessary. Alternatively, you can configure CVS roots when checking out files or directories from or importing them to a CVS repository.
